 6-0 margin, Bangor are favourites to complete their first Welsh Premier double, but Blackmore will demand that the players are totally focused.

He said: "When we played at Caersws, they did well early on and created several chances, but then everything we hit went in to give us an excellent result".

Right-winger Kenny Burgess misses out for City while University striker Mike Linnecar is included.

"With the Premier Cup having gone and the league title beyond us, we can now concentrate on climbing the league ladder and a major priority is the Welsh Cup," added Blackmore.

Caersws' Hugh Clarke will miss today's clash with Bangor with a hamstring, injury, writes John Bridgwater.

The only downside of their battling 1-1 draw with Port Talbot in midweek was the late dismissal of midfielder Geraint Lewis for two bookings which means he will miss the trip while Neville Thompson and Sean Jehu are also sidelined with injuries.
